参考解析
解析：推理题【命题思路】这是一道句意推理题，属于封闭式推理题。句意推理题和词义推理题一样，需要借助上下文的信息进行推理解答。首先将短语定位到原文中后再根据所在文本进行推理。本题考查的是代词指代。【直击答案】根据题干定位到文章第三段第一句话“in the weeks and months that…deeply unfashionable”。紧接着第二句话“in the art world that meant…”中that充当代词，指代第一句话的内容，因此meant后面的内容是对第一句话的解释，其意思是：在艺术收藏界里这就意味着收藏者们会远离画廊和拍卖会场。这一信息与A项“收藏者们不再积极参与到艺术平市场的拍卖会中”一致，因此为正确选项。【干扰排除】B项中的“停止各种花销”是对题干的过度推理。文章第三段第三句话中提到“sales of contemporary art fell by twothirds”，其含义是说当代艺术品的销售量下降了三分之二，这与选项中提到的“停止各种花销”不相符，其表述过于绝对。C项在文中并未提及，题干并未提及有关吸引力的方面。D项是对题干字面意思的理解，而没有结合句子所在的文本语境，属于望文生义。

问答题Practice 1 Directions: Read the text below. Write an essay in about 120 words, in which you should summarize the key points of the text and make comments on them. Try to use your own words. I was driving home the other day on a sunny afternoon. I had a smile on my face as I sang along to the songs on the radio. It was such a beautiful day that I felt full of happiness. My good mood ended, however, when the radio station took a news break between songs. Then suddenly I found myself listening to yet another story of a rich famous man who had broken the law. I shook my head as I came to a red traffic light. As I pulled to a stop I noticed four leather-jacketed bikers. They were standing in the middle of the road with two on either side of the light. They looked rough and dangerous, but as I got closer I noticed each one was holding their helmet in their hands. I rolled down my window as one approached my car. “We are the Brother of the wheel,” he said. “We are collecting money for Christmas Toy Drive for needy children.” As I pulled a dollar out of my wallet I looked past his beard and into his eyes. They shined with goodness and kindness that came right from his soul. I dropped the money in his helmet and waved to the other bikers as I drove off. My good mood had returned. My faith in mankind had been strengthened. And I remembered once again never to judge people by their appearance.
